Frisco, Texas : The electric atmosphere inside the Comerica Center in Frisco, Texas, was not just about punches and takedowns it was also about purpose, representation, and community empowerment. At the heart of this action-packed Peak Fighting MMA event stood two proud sponsors: 1020 Venturesand Rolling Ice Arlington, both playing a central role in bringing this night of thrill and spirit to life.
Speaking at the event, CEO Raja Raheel Akhtar Khanzada stated:
“Our sponsorship isn’t just about business visibility — it’s about investing in our youth, especially immigrants and underrepresented talent. That’s why we proudly partnered with Peak Fighting.”
A standout moment of the evening was the appearance of “Abbas The Boss”, a Syrian-born Muslim immigrant fighter, who was specially sponsored by 1020 Ventures and Rolling Ice. Abbas, with his grit and passion, has quickly become a symbol of hope, strength, and perseverance — not only for refugees but for young fighters and Muslims around the world.
Though Abbas narrowly lost the bout due to a technical error attempting to choke his opponent from an illegal angle he remains a strong contender with two more chances to prove himself and potentially qualify for the UFC. The crowd roared in support during his entrance and throughout the match, recognizing his heart and talent.
The event featured both men’s and women’s fights and offered entertainment for all age groups. From the energy in the arena to the community support behind the scenes, the collaboration between 1020 Ventures and Rolling Ice Arlington was a testament to how local businesses can make a global impact — not just through branding, but by standing for values, vision, and community uplift.
